The books that were removed, were sold through Amazon's do it yourself publishing service.

It's not like they scan all your books for any offending text. They knew the filename and their own id number for the book, so they deleted them.

Beyond that is "format shifting" books even legal? Not to mention, I'm sure millions of people have scanned in and OCRed their own HP books.
